Someone posted a story the other day about that 15 year-old Afghan kid who was just released from Guantanamo Bay after being held there as an "enemy combatant" for the last year and a half. He was hardly recognizable to his family back in Afghanistan, since he's about six inches taller than when he arrived at Gitmo, has a physique that looks like an NFL linebacker compared to a typical Afghan, and now speaks pretty good English. LOL.

Yeah...and I heard that kid contradicted the claims of Human Rights Watch, saying he was treated very well, with good food, clothing and shelter...something the people of Afghanistan rarely get.

Yeah. Imagine if the situation was reversed.
